These are two very different lights with very different beam profiles. X80 has more light close in and wide, the TM28 is the opposite: less light very close, but a narrower beam penetrating greater distance.

Flooder versus thrower.

Best answer: get both. :welcome:

I own the TM28 but not the x80(I do have a X7vn 15000 lumen flooder) and I really like the the TM28 for a great all around usable light. I use my lights for daily walks and many adventures so quality beams and usable features are very important to me. The TM28 with its ability to run at 2300lumens without thermal issues and throw decently far as well as having the built in charging feature makes it a fantastic adventure light. The x80 from what I've seen is really just a a super floody show off light that looks like a ton of fun but isn't all that great for all around use such as hiking or exploring.

look up beam shots on YouTube of the two lights and pick which one you want to buy first because like the rest of us you'll just end up with a shelf full of lights down the road.
